Church of Santa Ana

This is without doubt the most significant building in the village, occupying an entire block and facing Jerusalem. A 16th-century construction, it was inaugurated as the parish church in 1555, though it was rebuilt in 1994.

It is built on a square ground plan with three naves separated by quadrangular pillars supporting half-point arches. The highlight of its exterior is provided by the three-section Mudejar tower with its central buttress and six-space bell tower at the foot of the Gospel.

The sacristy may have been built later than the church itself, while the site now occupied by the outdoor steps is believed to have once contained a cemetery.
